I went to have an unsightly mole removed above my ear, as it would stick out when my hair was up. She removed it, no problems, but then she saw another mole on my back that looked suspicious. I was going to come back, probably never would but she calmly convinced me to have it removed and it was Melanoma. The only down side is she doesn't take insurance.

Her staff is not very friendly and the wait time is ridiculous every time I have been to the office. I have requested records to be sent for insurance purposes and there is no follow through. Dr. Galvin is very professional, kind, and thorough.
